Thieves 

Gustave Doré's "Thieves" is a powerful depiction of the eighth circle of hell from Dante's *Inferno*. The scene is filled with a sense of chaotic desperation as naked figures are relentlessly attacked by snakes. Doré’s dramatic style is on full display with exaggerated anatomy and intricate details. This engraving, which was part of a series illustrating *The Divine Comedy*, was made in the 19th century and showcases Doré’s mastery of the medium and his ability to bring Dante’s words to life.
